The light shines bright on her face.
A scarred heart and hands
While her minds in a different place
Pain Is blown away like rough sand
As memories or past cut her skin like broken glass
A sky full of unfilled wishes flying high
Her cheek will not let a teardrop pass
The sight of a lone flower
Brings a glint to her eye
She reaches out to touch it
But as her finger brushes the velvet white,
The delicate plant it slices her skin
As poison runs all through her blood
She begins to lose all sight
Some things can't be trusted
She knew it from the start
Her body grows numb
She realises her chances are bleak
Long dark tendrils curl round her heart
The beautiful rose betrayed her
As her heart grows weak
